Nancy Pelosi Lies For The Third Time About Her CIA Briefing..

If you watch this, it's pretty obvious that Pelosi is lying through her teeth.

Plus, Pelosi acknowledged publicly for the first time today that she was aware that detainees were being waterboarded as long ago as 2003 when a member of her staff was part of a briefing in February of that year in which the CIA was revealed that waterboarding was part of those enhanced interrogation techniques.

Meanwhile the Obama Administration formally denied ex-Vice President Dick Cheney's request to declassify and publicly release those two CIA reports documenting the effectiveness of the IET program, including the valuable intel learned using the techniques.

Obama is in a bind, thanks to Pelosi. The Angry Left is screaming for the heads of Bush Administration officials on a platter, an doriginally Obama was just fine with that - untilk he discovered that his own Speaker of the House and who knows who else are going to go down as well if he starts putting together any Soviet -style show trials.

Of course, all this could have been avoided if there was any sense of principle in the White House. All Obama had to do from from Day One was to commit to no prosecution of former Bush Administration officials on this issue and stick to it.
